Based on Psalm 139:1-4, author Hutchison demonstrates that each life can be a prayer. Sparrow usually starts his day with prayer but on this particular day, he just can’t find the words. Aided by his friends turtle, mouse and deer, he has demonstrated to him various ways of offering our lives as a prayer to the Lord. It might be our good works or our creative attempts or even dancing like Buck the deer. Sparrow’s heart is full and thankful at trend of the day, having learned about prayer, with or without words.
